the fact is though we can't finish the job of deficit reduction through spending cuts alone. the cuts we've already made to priorities other than medicare medicaid, social security and defense, mean that we spend on everything from education to public safety less as a share of our economy than has been true for a generation, and that's not a recipe for growth. so, we've got to do more both to stabilize our finances over the medium and long term but also spur more growth in the short term. now, i've said i'm open to making modest adjustments to programs like medicare to protect them for future generations, and i've also said that we need more revenue through tax reform by closing loopholes in our tax code for the wealthiest americans. if we combine a balanced package of savings from spending on health care and revenues from closing loopholes, we can solve the deficit issue without sacrificing our investments in things like education that are going to help us grow. turns out, the american people agree with me. they listened to an entire year's debate over this issue and they ma

there's actually been several rounds of deficit reduction worth reviewing. back in 2010 and '11, they put a bunch of continuing resolutions or kind of spending caps onto mostly discretionary programs. in 2011 when we had the debt ceiling debacle, they agreed to the budget control act which was another billion dollars, roughly, of cuts. again, mostly from if not entirely from discretionary programs. and then, of course, we had the fiscal cliff which was $650 billion of revenue increases. so so far, we've actually had $2.4 trillion over a ten-year period of deficit reduction. but about 30% of it has come from rev lienue increases and at the other 70% from come from spending cuts. entirely from discretionary programs. >> what's the budget control act? >> it's what came out of the last debt ceiling debacle when the republicans and the democrats agreed on this trillion dollars of roughly discretionary -- all discretionary spending reductions. but the point is, none of this really touches entitlements. none of it touches the mandatory. and its $2.4 trillion. >> wh
